- Support Beautiful colours and reflections. --Tremonist (talk) 15:49, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- Support Nice bird, reflections, place. Nice all... 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 16:06, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- Comment I would crop out abbout half of the space on the right. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:11, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Tomascastelazo: Thanks for the suggestion, you mean this crop? If so I prefer no crop version :) --Laitche (talk) 17:23, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Laitche: A little more... Put the bird in line with the imaginary line of the right of rule of thirds. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:35, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Tomascastelazo: this one? --Laitche (talk) 17:40, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Laitche: Much better... the eye move across nicely from left to right and stops at the bird, after that it does not have much space to move on. The rule of thirds works pretty well most of the time. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:47, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Tomascastelazo: I know what you mean but I want three elements horizontally, lotuses and darker stone and brighter stone so I prefer the original :) --Laitche (talk) 17:50, 25 June 2015 (UTC) PS. lotuses are closer and low, darker stone is middle, brighter stone is farther and high :) --Laitche (talk) 18:01, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Laitche: It´s your picture and my suggestion.... you decide ;) --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:53, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

- Support --Bojars (talk) 17:36, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose I'm afraid I really don't like the distracting light coloured rock on the right. It takes the eye away from the subject. I'd go a tiny bit further left than your second crop above at chop at 3611px width from the left. To me, that's all nice dark water + reflection and the bird in contrast. You still have three elements, if you include the bird! -- Colin (talk) 18:21, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Colin: I guess you mean this crop, yes I know that crop is good balanced but I prefer the original, it's maybe Japanese-ish sense so I don't mind at all if you nominate any crop as alternative :) --Laitche (talk) 18:43, 25 June 2015 (UTC) p.s. Thanks Colin, your vote is oppose but I think your comment is a compliment :) --Laitche (talk) 20:17, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Colin: I uploaded the pre cropped version, I think they can create the other crop versions more easily :) --Laitche (talk) 19:17, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose I don't think the wide composition, with the bird dead center, works here. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:20, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Support While a cropped image wouldn't be bad either, I like the way this places the bird in some natural context. Daniel Case (talk) 05:12, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose, this image is good, not a FP, I would go further and crop as a suggest on the note (and a sample here), because all this empty space do not add to the photo, the reflection is not good, and the most important subject now fills the frame. I also suggest, as in the sample, raise up the shadows, it gives a better result. -- RTA 05:29, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- @RTA:I can't see the sample (error 404), please check the URL... --Laitche (talk) 05:36, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Weird, Laitche try this one. -- RTA 05:41, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- @RTA:OK, I can see that thanks. --Laitche (talk) 05:45, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- @RTA:Your sample gives me a hint so I nominated alternative 2, Thanks :) --Laitche (talk) 08:02, 26 June 2015 (UTC) p.s. If the bird is larger then I think your sample is better but it's too small for this bird, that would be 3MP... --Laitche (talk) 08:15, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Weird, Laitche try this one. -- RTA 05:41, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

- Comment --@King of Hearts:, @RTA: I don't think the bird is only main subject in this photo, I am seeing ten elements here then the bird is the one of ten for me :) --Laitche (talk) 06:07, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose A lot of space all around that doesn't support the main subject, in my opinion. — Julian H.✈ 06:13, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Julian:Thanks for the review, the bird is the one of elements here for me like this one :) --Laitche (talk) 06:32, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- There, the arrangement of everything makes sense to me. Here, The arrangement feels random. I'm not saying it's not possible that this much space around the subject can work. But the reflection of the fence (which gives the image an impression of human interference) isn't helpful and the flowers don't have a real positive impact. In my opinion. — Julian H.✈ 06:59, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Julian:Thanks for the review, the bird is the one of elements here for me like this one :) --Laitche (talk) 06:32, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Support my favorite -- Christian Ferrer 17:18, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose Strange composition. -- Pofka (talk) 10:00, 27 June 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose Composition. Maybe a portrait sould have been a better choice for such a "vertical" bird, even in this environment.--Jebulon (talk) 14:33, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
Alternative 1
[edit]- Info @Tomas:, @Colin:, @King: I nominated the alternative following the suggestion (I hope...), but I still prefer the original... --Laitche (talk) 06:00, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Support --Laitche (talk) 06:00, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Support Better, though there could still be more space at the bottom of the reflection. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 06:20, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Support Yes (though I'd have cropped a bit more off the RHS as I indicated above). -- Colin (talk) 07:40, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Support This version is really better. Yann (talk) 09:29, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- Support There are so many crop options possible from the original. I added my suggestion too. :) Jee 09:32, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

- Oppose Down with the so-called "alternatives" ! How many until we will have the good one ? Here is FPC, the nominator have to chose carefully a good version before nominating, and wait after the end of the voting period before renominate a cropped (or whatever other else) version. --Jebulon (talk) 14:31, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
Alternative 2
[edit]- Info More focus on the bird and rule of thirds. --Laitche (talk) 07:59, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
